you can order without using numbers.
chop sticks no longer slow you down.
you get deja vu reading your fortune.
you can taste the difference between general tso's chicken, and orange chicken.
the employees no longer refer to you as a gai-jin.
you eat so much your actually still full an hour later.
your still full over eight hours later.

i love the asian place i eat at from time to time. Calling them up to place an order is a trip. Its called "Great Wall" and they answer their phone like, "Grey Wa", and if you don't say anything they start shouting, "GREY WA! GREY WA!"

while reading the menu of a chinese restaurant i worked next to called "hunan delight", the description of the peking duck was quite true the the restaurants name
"peking duck: fresh long island d-i-c-k served in true peking form" i read this several times to see if i was missing something, but no, it was just a terrible typo, i showed it to the manager who looked at my like "what does this dumb white boy want?" pulls out his reading glasses form his shirt pocket, reads it and says "OH F***! IS IT LIKE THIS ON ALL THE MENUS!?" then he ran into the kitchen and started yelling in chinese. i laughed my butt off walking out. it also had typos like "...served wit rice" but those kinds of typos let you know they are really chinese.

Hmm.. I'm chinese and let me tell you. There arent any "authentic" Chinese/Asian resturants in east tennessee. Dont ever come here lookin for any kind of foreign food. Although we do have great homecooking.
